Pamela Yorke-Hardy ... on art

My art is inspired by my surroundings. My studio is nestiled among the trees at the foot of my garden. I love to create beauty in my garden and in my studio.

About the artist

Pamela is a founding member of the Pembina Hills Arts Centre. Over twenty years ago she had a dream of creating a place where local artists’ could publicly displayed their work. She was instrumental in seeing this vision come to life. She was the first director of the Pembina Hills Arts Centre in the clock tower building in the heart of downtown Morden, Manitoba.

Pamela works in her studio creating watercolours, drawings and collages using multi media and pressed flowers. Her one of-a-kind jewellery is made from nature’s creations—trees, pussy willows and other seeds, and has been sold to people from all over the world.

Pamela has had many solo shows, and has been a part of many group exhibitions in Manitoba, British Columbia, Alberta and North Dakota. Her arts and crafts are on display throughout Manitoba galleries and gift shops.
